Stanbic Bank Zambia is a subsidiary of Standard Bank from the Republic of South Africa in Zambia . Its head office in Zambia is Woodgate House on Cairo Road in Lusaka . It has branches in Lusaka and in Ndola , Kitwe , Mkushi and Chingola . This branch was formerly called Grindlays Bank International .

Standard Bank Group is a public company and is listed on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange. It has $ 81 billion in assets and employs 35,000 people worldwide. It is present in a further 17 countries south of the Sahara and 21 on other continents, which means that it plays an essential role in the low intra-African trade.

The Stanbic Bank is likely to be the toughest competitor of the Zambia Export and Import Bank . Because more important for them than intra-African trade is the interim financing of imports and exports. The clearing and forwarding agents in the ports will handle their financial transactions via Stanbic, as their own parent companies are also based in the Republic of South Africa. Stanbic primarily acts as a commercial bank, but its cross-border intra-African services, especially in the SADC region, should be politically indispensable.
